<p class="MsoNormal"><b>Luke Jackson</b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In 2012, Luke co-founded a multimedia company dedicated to
producing materials that engage students in immersive educational experiences.
These games attracted philanthropic and government funding to support their
development. Luke acted as project manager for 18 months, during which he was
in charge of up to 20 artists and programmers working in Melbourne, Brisbane,
and Mumbai. In late 2013, Luke began a
PhD at Deakin University to explore the complexities of writing narrative-based
educational games. He is now fully immersed in this burgeoning area of inquiry,
and regularly speaks with game writers and designers from within the broader
games industry and from within the educational games industry. Luke is the
author of five published books, four aimed at teenagers and one aimed at young
children. He has also written extensively for Australian education providers. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>Luke Deylen</b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Luke Deylen is a Creative Technologist at Clemenger BBDO. He
is a good friend of PixelEd, and started his career journey in the VET in Schools
Multimedia program. He has presented to students at the Top Designs forum at
Melbourne Museum for the past 3 years. He’s been in the advertising industry
for five years, working for DT and Clemenger BBDO, two very well respected
agencies in Melbourne. His clients have included BMW Mini Cooper and Coca Cola.
He has worked on projects such as KFC Snack in the Face, (which reached number
one on the iTunes weekly downloads ladder), Bank of Melbourne QJumper and once
had to make a love testing machine to promote his company. Luke creates digital
interactive experiences and his passion is in creating tangible digital
solutions with a focus on games.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><br></p><p class="MsoNormal">Best regards,</p><p class="MsoNormal">Marian Stoney</p>
